well sadly it looks like the montipora cap frag has gone to a better place, that aquacultured reef in the sky.
I still don't really know where the problem lay. All other inhabitants seem to be doing well. Water parameters have been stable and reasonable. Nitrates are at around 5ppm. Even with the heat, I have been able to maintain a tank temp around 78deg, and the other frags purchased seem fine.
I will wait befor buying another cap frag, and definitely will go with one that looks healthier than this one did, but I hate to see something die in my tank. POOP!
Best,
Rob
